Thanks Maurice, I'm working to make my app live (but haven't got there yet). Just curious, which FP version does your SDK install directory
/frameworks/flex-config.xml file show inside the <target-player> </target-player> tags? I'm thinking that an interesting test would be to use a browser with a version of Flash Player older than what is showing in the flex-config.xml file. Or, is that what you already tested? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Maurice Amsellem" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, October 28, 2013 3:48:12 PM Subject: RE: compile error after installing SDK w/Flex Installer 2.7: unable to open /sdk/path/to/playerglobal.swc I tried it and it didn't seem to work. that is I compiled a project with FP 11.9, html wrapper an "check FP version" on, and started it on a browser that uses FP 11.4. But nothing happened. No swf, no prompt... Can you also try on your side, you may be luckier :-).

I thought there was a test in the html wrapper javascript but can't be sure anymore. Can you do the test, please, maybe setting FP to 11.9, and checking with an older browser.

One remaining question though... Is there any way to force users to use a minimum Flash Player version? I *think* the purpose of using the compiler switch of -target-player=11.1 is to prevent compiling in Flash Player features from newer versions of Flash Player. As the provider of a Flex app, is it my responsibility to inform users that they must use version 11.1 or newer? Or, is there some way to auto-inform users when they try to run the Flex app using versions older than 11.1 that the app won't run until they update Flash Player to 11.1 or newer (and, hopefully, provide something to click on to launch an installer for latest version)? ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, October 28, 2013 10:20:11 AM Subject: Re: compile error after installing SDK w/Flex Installer 2.7: unable to open /sdk/path/to/playerglobal.swc I think it must be my error (not an Apache bug). I see the error references the path: /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4.7/sdks/Nightly/20131028/frameworks/libs/player/11.1/playerglobal.swc But the only path in my directory is for 11.9, that is: /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4.7/sdks/Nightly/20131028/frameworks/libs/player/11.9/playerglobal.swc When I installed the nightly build, the 11.9 Flash Player was selected. I checked my Project Properties > Flex Compiler settings, which shows: Adobe Flash Player options: "Use minimum version required by the Flex SDK" Additional compiler arguments includes the switch: -target-player=11.1 I tried changing the -target-player=11.9, but it didn't help. ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, October 28, 2013 10:08:04 AM Subject: Re: compile error after installing SDK w/Flex Installer 2.7: unable to open /sdk/path/to/playerglobal.swc Oops, you're right Alex, I got confused.
